I am a law student from a non-NLU institution and aspire to secure internships at top-tier law firms. Given the competitive nature of the recruitment process, I would like to understand what factors truly help a non-NLU student stand out.
Beyond academics, what experiences, skills, or achievements do top-tier law firms value most when selecting interns? Are there any specific steps that non-NLU students can take to improve their chances of receiving interview calls and internship offers?
Additionally, what are the most common CV mistakes that cause otherwise capable candidates to miss out on opportunities at leading law firms? What distinguishes a strong legal CV from one that is likely to be overlooked?
